CV SWAP QUESTION

[Corzette]

I have done the CV swap with the 280ZX adapters from Ross and love them, but if I switch to a 87 88 R200 from a 300ZX will the adapters accomodate the new axles or do I need to order a different adapter?

Assuming you get the clutch type LSD (ie. not the viscous SE model R200), your axles will work fine. You will have to swap your front driveshaft yoke from your present R200 onto your new unit as the Z31 LSD R200's have different front yokes. I've done this on 5 or 6 units without issue but some have run into difficulty achieving correct torque on the reinstall FWIW.

 

And with my new Z31 CV adaptors you can use 4 bolt Z31 CV shafts, which would likely include the viscous R200's! (assumine they outboard flange is 4 bolt and theyr'e of same length, one customer thought they were but it wasn't concretely confirmed).
